They're the worst of all those bloody North Londoners and don't get me started on that Rick Stein. He comes over here from the North of somewhere I don't even know where it is on a map and takes our jobs and our fish - why doesn't he take his own fish? I'll tell you why, cos he's a Northerner that's why! Scum.

Those who like Manning should all go back and live in the scum hovels where they were born with their Northern dole-scrounging scum parents, illiterate junkies that they are, bleeding the country dry with their whining pitiful northern attitudes, blaming everyone else for problems of their own making due to their fagging, alcoholic sitting on their fat arse lifestyles. Sterilisation would be too good for them - there, that is not quite as bad as Manning but bordering on the kind of vicious hatred he would have liked. I am sure his fans would approve.

Its "Bucky" or possibly "Buckie" Patrick and it is never drunk by the pint.

Down here we have a Bucky with the paper bag round the bottle so it's difficult to see what size the bottle is.

Manning style jokes -

Did you hear about the Scotsman who was so tight he took his own wife with him on holiday to Thailand?

Paddy and Murphy had a terrible day yesterday at the London sperm donor clinic - Paddy missed the tube and Murphy came on the bus!

Bernard Manning on the Mrs Merton show openly admitted he was racist and thought people who were born here and not white dont belong because a dog born in a stable is still a dog. He went on to say no pakis fought for this country in D day or Dunkirk or in any war for us. If he had checked his facts first he would have found out that the country which supplied most troops from the Empire in all the wars was in fact India. Moere than Canada, Australia US and millions of blacks from the caribbean and Africa served Britain during the wars.

He was a bigot, ignoramus and a fool those are the nice things to say about him. It was shocking seeing those police cheer on his racist jokes, when they of all people can put their bigotry into practice with impunity most of the time. It was the same Manchester police force that we saw the BBC's undercover documentary expose racist police officers. The reaction of the police was to cover it up, by trying to get the Home Secretary and BBC from broadcasting it. They were finally shamed into action. I wouldnt be surprised if they perform a guard of honour or send him a memorial for all the good he has done for confidence in the police force

That was then this is now.

We have all moved on.

or have we..?

now - take a look at this video. Jim Jeffries claims to be 'spaz approved'. That's spaz as in SCOPE. And his opening line to gays -'if you can take a dick up your arse, you can take a joke' brought the house down. (I'm not sure how much of that will survive the Future Censorman, but you get the idea).

The night I saw Jim Jeffries a black comedian came on and made a string of jokes at the expense of blacks - but Jeffries was the funniest, and the most extreme, by a street.

So, my question is - how do you distinguish between Bernard Manning's comedy in the service or racism on the one hand and Jim Jeffries exposure of our dirty little secrets on the other? Or don't you find Jim funny?

The TV show that probably did most to foster racism was one which was devised to show how ridiculous it was, and that was Till Death Us Do Part. The part of Alf Garnett was supposed to make people see how stupid racists were, and to laugh at them. It actually had the opposite effect and people laughed with the character rather than at him. I remember both in my latter years at school and my first years at work when the show was in it's prime that he became a sort working class hero to many, people taking great delight in immitating the character when they talked about blacks or Asians.

unfortunately I think you're spot on the money there (except for the Shimano bit - it always works for me). So - here's my next question. Is it what is said, or the effect of what is said that is important?

Unknown · June 2007

I think it's down to the talent of the writer and the performer. Till Death was brilliantly written and acted, and it struck a cord in working class areas which were experiencing coloured immigration and didn't really know how to deal with the changes that were taking place. Whatever your views on Manning, he was widely regarded as being technically very skilled as a comedian. If you are funny enough when you make disparaging comments about minorities you will re-enforce the views of the bigots and make the waverers believe that it is acceptable to engage in racist or homophobic behaviour while still being a fair minded person yourself.
